Zenolite® is a next-generation high gloss wall panel.
Vivid, lightweight and stronger than glass, it’s a sophisticated
solution that improves any room. Designed and manufactured
in Australia and exported globally, Zenolite is suitable for both
residential and commercial applications.
Features
Zenolite is made from two layers of acrylic, co-extruded into
a single sheet. A vibrant color layer is capped with a
stunningly clear top layer to create a panel of incredible
depth, gloss, and clarity.
▪▪ Lightweight and easy to handle, Zenolite can be installed
rapidly over new or existing wall finishes. It can also be
cold bent to form gentle curves.
▪▪ Zenolite can be fabricated on-site with standard
woodworking tools, and installs using double-sided tape
and neutral cure silicone.
▪▪ Zenolite’s surface will not harbor mold or bacteria,
therefore making it easy to clean using just warm soapy
water and a microfiber cloth.

Savings
Installation
Edge finishing and joining
Time and Cost: Zenolite saves time and money, because
you do not need to lay individual tiles or use any grouting and time is money on any project. Zenolite is lightweight, easy
to handle and can be cut, drilled, and shaped on site unlike
other materials such as glass panels.
The installation system uses a combination of double
sided-tape and neutral cure silicone. Allowance for thermal
movement is important and 3mm (1/8”) per 1000mm (40”) is
adequate in most situations. Joints can be left open, sealed
with neutral cure silicone or fitted with the Zenolite edge
extrusions. Refer to the Zenolite Technical Guide at
zenolite.com for full details.
Zenolite can be finished using a variety of aluminum edge
extrusions. There are four profiles each supplied in 2500mm
(98”) lengths.
Freight and Packaging: Costs are reduced because
of Zenolite’s low weight, allowing for more shipping
and transport options. Less energy is used for cartage,
plus it’s easier to handle and move around with less
chance of breakage.
Maintenance: Being completely inert with an impervious
surface, bacteria and mold do not permeate the sheet.
Surface contaminents are simply wiped away with mild
soap and water - delivering a significant saving in labor and
chemicals use over the life of the installation. Zenolite panels
and sheets carry a 10 year indoor UV warranty.
Cleaning and refinishing
▪▪ Zenolite is easy to clean using mild soap, warm water and
a soft microfiber cloth or chamois.
▪▪ Strong chemicals are not required.
▪▪ Waterproof, impervious ultra-hygienic surface.
▪▪ Minor scratching and scuffing can be easily removed by
hand with selected liquid polishes and a microfiber cloth.
▪▪ More severe scratches or damage can be removed by
mechanical buffing using a cutting compound and woolen
buff at a slow speed.
Zenolite panel size
▪▪ 2440mm x 1220mm x 4mm
Note - Zenolite thermal movement is 0.7mm / 1000mm / 10°C
Performance
Zenolite is a proven performer because it has two layers of
acrylic fused into one (a color layer and a clear layer).
This means:
▪▪ the color is not a thin, inconsistent or patchy layer of paint.
▪▪ the color layer is permanently fused to the clear acrylic and
will not separate.
▪▪ unlike glass and other painted high gloss sheet products,
minor scratches to the color layer will not show through to
the clear side.
Environment
Zenolite is designed to have as minimal impact on the
environment and is wholly manufactured under the EGR
Environmental Management System, which has been
independently accredited to ISO14001. The manufacturing
process does not release any harmful emissions to air,
land or water. Zenolite is hygienic and does not promote
bacterial growth or transmission making it ideal for food
outlets, high traffic areas and public spaces.
Custom orders
For unique projects and applications we can customize both
color and panel sizes. Minimum order quantities apply.

The ultra clear third layer dramatically enhances the chemical
and scratch resistance. Contact your distributor for availability
in your region.
Warnings
▪▪ Zenolite is designed for interior, vertical use only.
▪▪ Zenolite panels are thermoplastic and will expand and
contract with temperature and therefore will perform
best in temperature controlled environments with
recommended expansion gaps.
▪▪ Avoid use in areas exposed to intense direct sunlight such
as adjacent to skylights or large unshaded windows.
▪▪ For specific installation recommendations contact our

essential to achieve a stable panel.
